A sincere thank you to BESCOM for stepping up for Bengaluru.
Under the directions of Hon. Minister Sri @thekjgeorge, BESCOM has joined the Freedom from Waste campaign and is taking action on the ground.
On August 8 and 9, the MD and senior officers are leading an intensive JCB drive to clear waste and debris around BESCOM’s electrical installations in public spaces.
I hope BESCOM’s sense of responsibility inspires every other agency to look at its own spaces and do the same.
Together, let’s #JustCleanBengaluru for a Better Bengaluru.
Our mission is to build a Better Bengaluru !
Hence, we are working relentlessly to make to make public spaces across Bengaluru cleaner, greener, and more beautiful.

Fox Cricket’s broadcast of the 2018-19 BGT was peak production.
It was a completely fresh approach to Test coverage: 40 cameras at each venue, 4K production, exclusive Fox Rover and Flying Fox angles, new graphics and a much more innovative presentation.
Go back and watch the highlights. The difference is obvious.
Bengaluru South City Corporation said it has cleared 1,476 tonnes of construction and demolition waste and removed footpath encroachments along 131.46 km under 'Freedom from Waste' campaign. On August 6 alone, 6.6 km of footpath encroachments were removed in Jayanagar and Bommanahalli, while 2.5 km of footpaths were repaired. @comm_blr_south
For a generation like mine who had only heard stories of the golden days and endured near misses for 6 olympics - This was a changing moment. Belief turned into conviction. We can still play Hockey!!
Bengaluru West City Corporation cleared 167.97 km of footpath encroachments between July 1-31
After 163.37 km was cleared till July 30, another 4.6 km was cleared on July 31. The drive removed 450 petty shops, 685 pushcarts, 405 canopies, 736 steps/ramps, 997 advertisement boards, 80 sheds & 351 tonnes of debris. A total of 25km of footpaths was repaired @BWCCofficial
@indianhockey The 90s were very curious times. We played quite well on occasions - defeating Netherlands, Germany on occasions, but somehow never got any silverware to show for it.
Till 1998 Asiad Gold. That instilled some belief before the dark times of 2000s
I even remember a moustachioed de Grandhomme taking 6 wicket on debut.
Sometimes I wonder that if the economic situation would have been better, would Zimbabwe have been a regular championship contender 🤔
Anyone remember Colin de Grandhomme?
What a bowling performance he had in the final.
10-2-25-1.
An economy of 2.5 in a World Cup Final.
Spectacular.
Completely squeezed out Joe Root, who ended up scoring just 7(30) with a strike rate of 23.33.
In a world of Ben Stokes & Trent Boults, do not forget your Colin de Grandhommes.
Genetic work on ancient gourds suggests the American bottle gourds were closest to African ones, and ocean-current modelling showed that wild gourds could plausibly drift across the Atlantic, and the seeds could survive the journey!
So, yeah, the vegetable we detest as kids managed to get a US visa
